What the hell, I swear this thread had more pages lol

Yeah, a bunch of posts have been deleted from this thread.

It's ridiculous that trolls are allowed to post negative bullshit that is slanderous to the Bitcoin community as a whole but if I call someone out for thier religious ignorance my post gets deleted  Roll Eyes Must have rubbed a mod the wrong way.

The amount of religious people out there just proves how stupid the people of the world are as a whole.

too bad they didnt snatch you from your mothers arms.

You're not real smart, are you? Smiley

He probably isn't.  Most religious people think it is their duty to be self-righteous bigoted assholes.  How can any system of belief that characterizes non believers as evil wastes of space produce anything but assholes?

I wasn't even going there - I'm not that strong of an atheist. I consider myself agnostic, mostly because I really don't give a fuck what people believe in as long as it stays out of public policy.

It was more alluding to the fact that some people don't seem to get this isn't the same thread, the original post in this thread was only making fun of christians because in the other thread the OP used "As a christian" to preface them getting on their moral high-horse. The baby-eating shit just goes along with it, I guess because if you've ever come out as even remotely atheist in a bible-thumping region you get called things like baby-eater, satan-worshipper, etc as a matter of course.

Everyone should just chill the fuck out, no one's attacking anyone for their religion we're just poking fun at an idiot troll-thread that just happened to mention the worst "as a christian".

If you are serious, you use Euro's.  500 Euro Mark.  Makes for carrying cash 5x lighter.

Quote
The value of the note is several times greater than that of the largest circulating notes of other major currencies, like the US$100 bill.[4] Thus a large monetary value can be concentrated into a small volume of notes. This facilitates crimes which deal in cash, including money laundering, drug dealing and tax evasion.[5] There have been calls to withdraw the note for this reason.[6][7] However, some of the replaced currencies had widely-used high-value notes, including 10,000 Belgian francs, 5000 Austrian schillings, 1000 Dutch guilders, and 1000 Deutsche Marks.[4]

Spain in particular now has a quarter of all these high-value bills within its borders. This is far more for than expected for an economy of its size and they are rarely seen in every-day commerce – they have been nicknamed "bin Ladens" by the populace (as everyone knows they are there and what they look like but they have never seen them).[8] The UK and Spanish police are using the bills to track money laundering.[6][7]

As of 20 April 2010, money exchange offices in the United Kingdom stopped selling €500 notes due to their use in money laundering. The Serious Organised Crime Agency claimed that "90% of all €500 notes sold in the UK are in the hands of organised crime", revealed during an eight month analysis. The €500 note is worth in the region of £415 depending on exchange rates (more than eight times the value of the Bank of England's largest publicly-circulated note), and had become the currency choice for gangs to hide their profits.[9]

The EU directive 2005/06/EC[10] on the prevention of the use of the financial system for the purpose of money laundering and terrorist financing tries to prevent such crime by requiring banks, real estate agents and many more companies to investigate and report usage of cash in excess of €15,000.

The monotheistic belief include the doctrine that it has to be public policy.

I think we should ban the dollar. Let's start collect signs to ask the UN to ban such an evil thing!

But if the Euro was used in America, wouldn't its name be misleading? Should rename it "Euro and friends-o"
